Trying something new

November 28, 2015 KateLeave a comment

Today was interesting. In fact, it was fun. I went on a taster course for forensics. Okay, I was sat next to the interested and the young. Some wanted to know if Lewis was correct while others where there to find out if they wanted to pursue it as a career. I was there to… Continue reading Trying something new

Short Stories

A challenge!

November 23, 2015 KateLeave a comment

C.S. Wilde challenged me to two sentence story... So here it is and here's the link so you can have a go as well: The lights were getting brighter behind her, but Liv had no where to go except down. Giving a small sigh she moved her feet through the mud at the cliffs edge… Continue reading A challenge!

Looking back…

November 23, 2015 Kate4 Comments

I have been in a retrospective mood. It was just January that I put aside the toys (I was a toy manufacturer) and became a full-time writer and artist. Since then I have published a novella and a novel. There are another two novels on the go and I have ideas for a couple more.… Continue reading Looking back…

November 9, 2015 Kate7 Comments

I have been worried about my word count. Life has been getting in the way and I'm about 3000 words behind with Nanowrimo. I find myself sinking into the ever increasing circle of doubt and sadness. I know that there are other things that are acting on me. I have had yet another cold and… Continue reading How serious should I take this?

Word counts and trying to reach them

November 3, 2015 Kate11 Comments

I'm doing Nanowrimo this year. It's my third go and this time, so far, I'm on track. I ought to mention that I have never been able to reach the end, never hit that word count. Last year I was 30,000 words adrift. So what am I writing this year? The Gone 2 - Evolution… Continue reading Word counts and trying to reach them
